Speaker 2 (00:34):

dad loved the preseason because of Brown's rock. Then this
is gonna be our season and the season my dad's
like they suck. It was Tad Brown's ruined my childhood.

Speaker 3 (00:51):
Oh, I think that a lot of people would would
say that same thing. But can you believe summer is over?
And last night I noticed So we're loading up our
U haul because we're leaving today.

Speaker 1 (01:01):
Randy and Kylin should be on the road.

Speaker 3 (01:02):
They're heading to Indian Lake because we're getting the keys
officially and moving into the new little lake house at
Indian Lake this evening, like literally, but I noticed last
night there were so many kids out and about, more
than I've seen all summer.

Speaker 1 (01:15):
Because they know this is it. Summer nights are over
for them.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
I really the only reason I liked going to school
was football practice was over two days. But I can
remember we didn't go in so early. We didn't start
school till like August thirty. First, it felt like end
of August, and then we got out always on my
birthday on June second. That's why I remember that. So
I always loved my birthday because I was getting out

(01:39):
of school and it was my birthday.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:42):
Now they go longer, well I don't know if they
go longer. They just start earlier and get out earlier.

Speaker 1 (01:49):
They get so it's like, whoa what just said?

Speaker 2 (01:51):
But teachers paddled us in the room, had control the
two or three kids that they now they could say
there's something wrong.

Speaker 1 (01:58):
Was you ever get paddled every day? That's not a joke,
you really I.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
Got paddled probably once a week to Rose matt uh
Brian Tayle. No, we got paddled. Miss Moscow lit us
up all the time, our Italian sixth grade Miss Moscow.

Speaker 1 (02:16):
Would it hurt though?

Speaker 2 (02:16):
Oh yes, she let you up. And missus Shrino had
the board of education set up on the chalk board
where used to keep the chalk And when mister Applegarth
had holes jolled in his so he had no heir,
so he'd ever ad dynamics and I and you didn't
go home and tell your parents because then you got
hit again.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
Do you think they should still paddle absolutely?

Speaker 2 (02:35):
Especially yeah now they say he's got this or he's
got that. They come with all these excuses for these kids. No,
they're boys and they're wowed and they they pushed the
envelope and we need smacked on the rear on the shock.

Speaker 1 (02:47):
If they need to corporal punishment back to schools.

Speaker 2 (02:50):
Well then we Then it got to the point, as
I got older, they had a few football coaches that
paddled you because the female and that was you were
you were scared of death, miss coach Nick.

Speaker 1 (02:59):
Which he probably did nacked up anymore.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
In the well. As soon as one of that lady
teachers like miss Homan. She was really so nice, and
she'd say one more word, I'm gonna get the coach.
You're like, oh, you straightened right up, because literally he'd
put you to your knees. He'd hit you so hard
on your butt, dooks with that paddle, you'd go to
your knees.

Speaker 1 (03:15):
What was one of your favorite memories from high school days?

Speaker 2 (03:21):
Well, when I was a water manager, we used to
get orange water orange.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
Like water boy, you were water.

Speaker 2 (03:29):
No, No, we had orange water, and then we'd have water.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
Uh uh, I don't understand. What do you mean you
had orange water because.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
The mills and the mines the water orange. It was sulfur.
It was bad. So they would bring in stuff from
the United Dairy Water and I would get to be
in the hallway out of class giving water out to
all the kids. No, I love football and all that stuff,
but I think I think even the goofiest thing. That's
the thing I've wrote about.

Speaker 1 (03:52):
It makes sense now you grew up with sulfur in
your water.

Speaker 2 (03:55):
Yeah a lot.

Speaker 1 (03:56):
Now I understand that.

Speaker 2 (03:57):
Yeah, it was funny because it would be barely orange.
Would get it. But when it got really orange, you.

Speaker 1 (04:01):
I not believe it was that bad.

Speaker 2 (04:03):
It was bad. It wasn't, I mean, not now, but
it was just back You accepted it because that's what
put food on your plate. You didn't complain like you
do now some days the mill would you drop get.

Speaker 1 (04:12):
A trophy at your car show and you complain to boots.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
Yeah, but I mean, it was just a different time.
It wasn't that often. But that was one of the
corniest memories I have on I so loved that, and
then all football. I could go on about sports, but
being a good kid and being recognized felt good. Coming
from a good family felt good, having great parents. My
mom was a football mom, my dad was a booster dad.

(04:37):
I lived the American dream. And I wouldn't change my
teenage years for anything.

Speaker 3 (04:40):
You know what, I wouldn't change my high school teenage
years either. I feel like I had the best school now. Westerrill,
of course, is a lot different today than it was
back in the eighties when I graduated in nineteen eighty six.
I loved westerl North. I loved all my friends. I
loved being a cheerleader, cheering for football and basketball. I
loved playing softball. I honestly thought that high school was

(05:02):
the best time of my life. And then I went
to college. Oh, college is the best time in my life.
And then you get married, that's the best time in
your life. So everything just walked better, everything got better,
and now I work with boots.

Speaker 1 (05:13):
That's the best time in my life.

Speaker 2 (05:15):
Should be excited.

Speaker 3 (05:16):
You know what, for those of you who are going
back to school, or parents getting ready to send their
kids back, or teachers, it is such a great time
to be a teacher and be a student if you
let it be.

Speaker 1 (05:27):
Schools are tough, they go get in trouble.

Speaker 3 (05:29):
Oh I thought we'd go to two fifty eight. Okay,
well that changed. And anyway, it's the first day of
school for a lot of people, so enjoy the moment,
have fun, but be nice.

Speaker 2 (05:39):
To you get textures so when you're senior, you can
look at all twelve thirteen years from kindergarten at twelve.

Speaker 3 (05:45):
Now, I will say this, it is hard to be
a teacher these days because kids are a little creepy.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
So I will say that Robert Cooperman's next. You talk
about a funny guy that brings a lot to the show.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
And he doesn't just look funny either.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
Yeah, he's fun and funny, and he's built like an
Adonis for all many boots. On New Radio six ten
